Feeling overwhelmed is common and a form of anxiety. I feel it all the time. Often times others may choose, self hard, alcoholism or harming others. There are other ways out. Find your own creative outlet. Try painting, music, doodling, crossword puzzles, photography. Focus on that for 10 minutes a day. It may just turn into a passion.
From my concussion I've learned to cope with all kinds of crap being thrown in my direction. Ive felt so lost and lonely sometimes. No one really understood what I was feeling. Instead of going down a rabbit hole of negativity I choose to create art. I choose to use colors and textures with paint instead of harmful words and thoughts. After, with some experience and care this became my passion.
Now when I am flooded with emotions, I choose to paint.
"Life is about choices Some we regret, some we’re proud of. Some will haunt us forever. The message: we are what we chose to be.” --Graham Brown
